How good it is to live this way, never dwelling on the past, and never worrying about the future. If one lives on biblical principles and trusts God, seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness today, then tomorrow is a forgone conclusion. But this can be done without worrying, which betrays a lack of trust in God to be there and care for us in the future, or boasting, which shows a lack of belief that God will have his own ideas and will sovereignly direct us in the future. He will be there too, and so will we when it becomes today.ĭoes this mean never to save money, never to plan a schedule, never to delay gratification? By no means, logic and the principle of stewardship show us that as image-bears, we will in part be held accountable tomorrow for the way we handled what we’ve been entrusted with today (Mat 25:14-30). God is with us here and now, to find him there can be no dreaming or worrying about tomorrow. Whether it is boasting or worrying, God calls us to the present to live our lives in him.
